My first experience of censorship in music came with the battle between the Dead Kennedys and Tipper Gore’s PMRC (remember the “Parental Advisory Explicit Content” stickers?) which culminated in the obscenity trial in 1985/6 over the artwork for DK’s record Frankenchrist. I don’t know if anyone remembers but the board members of the PMRC were a bunch of white power brokers funded by Coors Beer, who also just happened to be big supporters of….. Ronald Reagan.
The elite keeping the lid on challengers to their power. Some things never change do they?
Anyway, forward 25/6 years or so to Moscow and 4 of the founding members of the art collective Pussy Riot perform their inspired Punk Prayer inside the Cathedral of Christ The Saviour.
It’s still one of the best and most effective pieces of protest performance art that I’ve seen, although at great personal cost as 3 out of the 4 performers were arrested and convicted.
Separation of church and state, censorship, state violence, state control, repression of equality, denial of intersectionality….and still the elite, the despots and the sycophants fear art and artists more than anyone since feudalism, capitalism and all that good stuff began.
Diana Burkot is a founding member of Pussy Riot, a multi disciplinary musician and a committed activist. Her music project away from Pussy Riot is called Rosemary Loves A Blackberry and it is a glorious kaleidoscope of performance art that brings together diverse instruments, beats, imagery and lyrics that open your mind to eclectic and experimental interpretations and is at home with any industrial die hards, synth lovers or lovers of the darker, magical sounds from the other side…..
It's a huge honour to have her on the show.
